Thanks Dave for that call to order and thanks to all the e-readers
pondering the subject of contributing text and articles to the boiler.
How many of you knew this is volunteer week? Does the word volunteer
have a deep meaning to you or your parents?
The only difference between a personal thought and a shared idea is a
piece of paper, a pencil and a few minutes of your time. We all think
about writing interesting and humorous articles but just need to
volunteer to put aside a little time for this task.
Anything (ok anything decent) can and will be published. Information
about your gadget, favorite beer, favorite brewery, or favorite gripe or
concern. How about that Yahoo stuff that some of us can't seem to
navigate? We welcome controversy along with humor. Heck, we could
possibly even sell stuff but......... it is beyond my area of expertise
to write the complete paper. The cost of publication and distribution
is close to $200 per edition.
One way or the other, let us know if you want a paper and what you are
willing to contribute. No responses from the membership sends a strong
"not needed" message to myself and Dave.
So there you have it live and direct from page two. We await your
response(s).

A couple of ideas:
A directory of local supply shops, brew pubs, and breweries (i.e. Summit)
would be helpful. Calendars of events for beer releases. Information on
tours, brewer names, participation in the AHA discount program. A list of
liquor stores and restaurants with good varieties of beer - domestic and
imported.
